Definitions

  • the present invention relates to a method of fabricating ultra-fine cermet alloys with a homogenous solid solution grain structure. More particularly, the invention relates to a method of fabricating an ultra-fine TiC-base cermet alloy with a homogenous solid solution grain structure that does not comprise a core-rim structure in the carbide grain.
  • the ultra-fine TiC-base cermet alloys are used as cutting tools for the finishing works of steel and cast iron due to their high hardness and abrasion resistance characteristics.
  • the sintered body of a TiC-base cermet alloy comprises a distinctive dual structure in its carbide grains.
  • This dual structure which is known as the core-rim structure comprises a center region (core) in which the main component includes TiC or TiCN, and a outer (peripheral) second region (rim) which surrounds the core and is mainly a carbide of solid solution such as (Ti, TM)C or (Ti, TM) (C, N), (See, FIG. 8 : In reference to Hans-Olof Andrn, “Microstructures of cemented carbides,” Materials and Design, 22, pp491–498 (2002)).
  • the rim region surrounding the core is also known to form an end-product in the type of solid solution that precipitates on the surface of TiC or TiCN grains as a result of grain growth process in a Ni-rich liquid during liquid phase sintering process (In reference to T. Yamamoto, A. Jaroenworaluck, Y. Ikuhara and T. Sakuma, “Nano-probe analysis of core-rim structure of carbides in TiC-20 wt % Mo 2 C-20 wt % Ni cermet, “Journal of Materials Research, 14, (1999), pp4129–4131).
  • TiC-base cermet alloy with the previously mentioned core-rim structure is not representing the physical property of carbides of uniform grain structure that composition allows but showing the physical property that originates from the dual structure of carbide grains. This also has some drawbacks of deteriorating the physical property of the sintering body.
  • the cermet with a uniform microstructure could represent a different physical property with respect to that of the existing cermet.
  • One of the big emerging technologies in the area of cutting tool material development is improving the hardness and toughness of cutting materials by reducing the size of carbide grains from a few micrometers to several sub-micrometers.
  • the fabrication methods of ultra-fine grain cutting tool materials which are known to date all involves sintering of carbides powder with a diameter less than 100 nm (nanometer) that is fabricated through a gas phase or solid state reaction.
  • the present invention is designed to overcome the above problems of prior art.
  • the object of the present invention is to provide a method of fabricating a TiC-base cermet alloy without the core-rim structure.
  • Another object of the present invention is to provide a high hardness TiC-base cermet alloy with ultra-fine grains which has a uniform microstructure in the alloy.
  • FIG. 1 represents the temperature rise on the surface of the milling jar with respect to the high energy ball milling time.
  • FIG. 2 represents the change in the X-ray diffraction pattern for TiC-20 wt %-Ni with respect to the high energy ball milling time.
  • FIG. 3 shows a scanning electron microscope (SEM) picture of TiC-20 wt %-Mo 2 C-20 wt20% powder manufactured by 20 hours milling.
  • FIG. 4 shows a scanning electron microscope (SEM) picture of the microstructure of (Ti, Mo)C—Ni type cermet.
  • FIG. 5 shows a transmission electron microscopy (TEM) picture of the microstructure of (Ti, Mo)C—Ni type cermet.
  • FIG. 6 represents the change in the X-ray diffraction pattern of TiC-20 wt %-WC-8 wt % Ni-7 wt % Co after 5 hours of high energy ball milling.

  • the fabrication method of a ultra-fine TiC-base cermet alloy with a homogenous solid solution grain structure comprises the steps of: forming powder mixture of TiC 50–90 wt % (weight percentage), TMxCy (where x and y are integers) 5–30 wt % and Ni or Co or a mixture of Ni and Co 5–30 wt % from mixing Ti powder, transition metal (TM) powder, carbon powder, Ni powder and Co powder; forming a composite powder of (Ti, TM)C—(Ni, Co) through a high energy ball milling process after putting the powder mixture into a milling jar together with balls with a fixed diameter; and compacting and sintering the synthesized composite powder.
  • the Ti powder, Transition metal powder, Carbon powder, Ni powder and Co powder have a purity value above 95% and their particle size is less than 1 mm.
  • the Transition metal is at least one metal element selected from the group consisting of Molybdenum (Mo), Tungsten (W), Niobium (Nb), Vanadium (V) and Chromium (Cr).
  • the basic material for the milling jar and the balls is at least one element selected from the group consisting of tool steel, stainless steel, WC—Co hard metal, silicon nitride, alumina, and Zirconia.
  • the diameters of the balls are in a range between 5 and 30 mm in diameter and put into the milling jar with powder mixture by the weight ratio of between 1:1 and 100:1.
  • the high energy ball milling process further comprises a step of measuring the surface temperature of the milling jar using a non-contact type infrared thermometer. From the onset of a sharp temperature rise on the surface of the milling jar, the ball milling process is continued for 1 to 20 hours.
  • the high energy ball milling process is implemented using a shaker mill, vibration mill, planetary mill, and attritor mill after charging argon gas into the milling jar.
  • the sintering is carried out under a 10 ⁇ 2 torr vacuum condition or under an argon environment in a temperature range between 1300 and 1500° C. for a duration of 1 to 4 hours.
  • the transition metal powders such as Ti powder with a purity value above 95% and its diameter less than 1 mm, Mo powder with a purity value above 95% and its diameter less than 1 mm, W powder, Nb powder, V powder and Cr powder are mixed together to form powder mixture of TiC 50–90 wt % (weight percentage), TMxCy (where x and y are integers) 5–30 wt % and Ni or Co or a mixture of Ni and Co 5–30 wt %.

  • the weight ratio between the balls and powder mixture to be put into the milling jar is in a range between 1:1 and 1:100.
  • the reason for constraining the weight ratio between the balls and powder mixtures to a range between 1:1 and 1:100 is to prevent pick-up of impurities caused by the wear and tear between the balls and jar when the weight ratio is set below 1:1.
  • At least one material is selected from the group consisting of tool steel, stainless steel, WC—Co hard metal, silicon nitride, alumina, and Zirconia.
  • the high energy ball milling process is carried out using a shaker-mill, vibration-mill, planetary-mill and attritor-mill after charging argon gas into the milling jar.
  • the reason for charging argon gas into the milling jar is to prevent oxidization of the powders during the ball-milling process.
  • the balls used for the ball milling process could all be equal in size or in two different sizes.
  • the surface temperature of the milling jar is measured using a non-contact type infrared thermometer.
  • the sharp temperature rise is affected by the weight ratio between the balls and powder mixture and this is mainly observed between 1 and 2 hours after the milling started.

  • high energy ball milling is carried out for 20 hours after the milling jar is charged with argon gas.
  • the surface temperature of the milling jar is measured using a non-contact type infrared thermometer.
  • the milled composite powders dried, granulated and compacted under a pressure of 20 MPa.
  • the compact is sintered under a 10 ⁇ 2 torr vacuum condition for the duration of 1 hour.

  • the hardness of the cermet fabricated according to the method in the present invention is about 92HRA.
  • the high hardness value is probably due to the fine grain structure of cermet made by present invention.
